40/29 News spoke with future Vue residents who may get to move in this weekend, depending on the continued construction at Stadium Drive.

Fayetteville city engineer Chris Brown said they will be watching the progress on the street leading up to the complex. The road will need to be complete before any residents can move in and rain has been slowing down the process.

Brown said, “They are struggling with the weather. There are still some of the streets that don’t have any pavement on them at all. They’re still either dirt or gravel.”

Crews have been working to rebuild one of the only roads leading to the Vue Apartments. They said rain has delayed the construction.

City leaders, however, said their time is running out and neighbors are tired of driving the unfinished road.

Only a few more weeks remain before people start moving in to the apartment complex. People who already live in the area hope the road is complete before that date.

“It’s very inconvenient,” said neighbor Kim Moreton.

Moreton’s drive home the past few months has been tough. Construction has left Stadium Drive a mess and is making her late most days.

“Sometimes as late as 20 minutes,” she said.

Crews have to have everything rebuilt by Aug. 17 or the company will lose its occupancy permit.

Brown’s department is in charge of making sure Stadium Drive is up to code when construction crews rebuild it. They will have to replace sewer liens, lay gravel, sidewalks and concrete.

“This project itself has been quite a challenge because of the amount of infrastructure they’re putting in,” Brown said.

Brown said his inspectors have spent more time on Stadium Drive than most other projects in the city. They have also had to go back and redo some of the work.

“We’re not going to sacrifice the quality just to get it done quickly,” he said.

40/29 News has reached out to Jay Stewart, one of the heads of the construction company reportedly on site, and he has not returned phone calls.
